Syd Barrett with Pink Floyd Interstellar Overdrive pts. 1 & 2. Interstellar Overdrive is a prime example of Pink Floyd's early Syd Barrett-driven days, when they created mostly Psychedelic Rock. It features Long, discordant chords on Barrett's guitar, constantly changing tempos, shifting rhythms, and few, or in this case, no lyrics at all. The main riff throughout the tune was adapted from the guitar riff from Love's remake of "My Little Red Book."
